The Postpartum Effect: Deadly Depression in Mothers
by Paul J. Goodnick Arlene M. HuysmanThe past decade has seen strides in the diagnosis and treatment of postpartum depression, which affects 400,000 women annually in the United States.

In The Postpartum Effect the author records anonymous first-person testimonies from mothers who were tempted to harm their children. She constructs a profile of mothers at greatest risk of the disease. All leading up to the central question: What drives a mother to the ultimate travesty? Dr. Huysman's measured, empirical approach is a plea for understanding.

Postpartum Psychiatric Problems
by James Alexander HamiltonThe present volume deals with the illness nowadays known as Postpartum Depression (PPD). The book was written by Dr. James Alexander Hamilton, a California psychiatrist who in 1980 founded the Marcé Society; its aim was to bring together psychiatrists, endocrinologists and social scientists to foster communication about PPD, which directly aligned with Dr. Hamilton’s goal, since 1955, to encourage physicians in the United States to better understand PPD in order to help victims of the illness.“Psychiatric illness which develops after childbirth is one of the most challenging problems of modern medicine. It usually occurs acutely and unexpectedly from a state of apparent good health. The patient is disabled at precisely the moment when her responsibilities and her capacity for enjoyment of life are greatest. Successful treatment of this kind of illness is most rewarding.“This book represents a collection and integration of widely scattered information which bears on the diagnosis and treatment of postpartum psychiatric problems. Some of this information relates to neglected physiological factors in these problems.”—Dr. James Alexander Hamilton

Posttraumatic Joy: A Seminar on Nietzsche’s Tragicomic Philosophy of Life
by Matthew ClementePosttraumatic Joy presents the major themes and ideas of Nietzsche’s corpus from a continental and psychoanalytic perspective with a particular bent toward how they might illuminate ways of coping with and living beyond trauma and suffering. Through a series of transcribed and edited lectures—originally delivered as a part of the "Nietzsche for Clinicians" workshop run through the Center for Psychological Humanities and Ethics at Boston College—this work traces the genesis of such fundamental psychoanalytic concepts as repression, the death drive, and the Oedipus complex to the works of one of philosophy’s most audacious and original thinkers. Reading Nietzsche not as a philosopher in the traditional sense, but as a proto-psychoanalyst, a precursor to Freud and Lacan, this work explores his understanding of the origins of morality, the value of sublimation, the movement from mourning to melancholia—or, in Nietzsche’s terms, from trauma to tragedy—and the possibility of a life lived in affirmation and self-overcoming. This interdisciplinary book will be of interest to scholars and practitioners whose work intersects with continental philosophy and theoretical and philosophical psychology. This includes any psychotherapist, social worker, psychoanalyst, or pastoral counselor with an interest in understanding the deeply psychological philosophy of one of history’s greatest thinkers.

The Posture of Meditation
by Will JohnsonWhen it comes to meditation practices, the body is as important as the mind--a fact that may come as a surprise to the many people who regard meditation as a strictly mental activity. But, as Will Johnson shows, the physical aspect of the practice is far too often underemphasized. The alert-yet-relaxed sitting posture that is the common denominator of so many meditative techniques is a wonderful aid for clearing the mind and opening the heart, but it also works to activate the natural healing energies of both body and mind. The author offers guidance and exercises for working with the posture of meditation and advice on how to carry its benefits on into all the rest of life.

Potenciadores Sexuales Naturales (Dra. Angela Fetzner #3)
by Dr Angela FetznerComo leerás en esta guía, no siempre tienen que ser las píldoras azules... Existen numerosos potenciadores sexuales a base de hierbas, suaves pero seguros, la mayoría de los cuales también actúan como afrodisíacos, es decir, estimulan adicionalmente el deseo y la libido. Este libro presenta los potenciadores sexuales a base de hierbas más conocidos y mejor estudiados. Muchos de los potenciadores sexuales a base de hierbas se conocen desde hace mucho tiempo en sus países de origen, a menudo lejanos, y su efecto de aumento de la potencia se utiliza allí desde hace mucho tiempo, pero sólo poco a poco estos potenciadores sexuales a base de hierbas están conquistando también el mercado europeo. Detrás del deseo de los potenciadores sexuales a base de hierbas, por supuesto, está también el deseo de no tener que "trabajar" el acto sexual con una píldora química, pero en el fondo llevamos el deseo de una sexualidad holística, misteriosa, única, mística. Deseamos más sensualidad, es decir, queremos disfrutar con todos nuestros sentidos. Y aquí es exactamente donde las plantas del amor pueden entrar en juego: No sólo refuerzan la potencia, sino que también despiertan todos los sentidos y pueden ayudar a reducir el estrés y a volver a relajarse adecuadamente. Si nos tomamos esto a pecho, la vida amorosa se vuelve (de nuevo) satisfactoria y misteriosa.

The Potential Consequences of Public Release of Food Safety and Inspection Service Establishment-Specific Data
by Committee on a Study of Food Safety Other Consequences of Publishing Establishment-Specific DataThe Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is the regulatory agency in the US Department of Agriculture that is responsible for ensuring that meat, poultry, and processed egg products produced domestically or imported into the United States are safe, wholesome, and properly labeled. FSIS collects a voluminous amount of data in support of its regulatory functions, but the two major types of FSIS data that are currently being considered for public release are sampling and testing data (derived from standard laboratory tests) and inspection and enforcement data (derived from text written by inspectors). Some of those data are already released to the public in aggregated form but not in disaggregated, establishment-specific form. In recent years, the Obama administration has implemented measures to facilitate openness in government, including the requirement that federal agencies publish information online and provide public access to information in a timely manner; in a form that can be easily retrieved, downloaded, indexed, and searched with tools that are available on the Internet; and without the need for Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. The Potential Consequences of Public Release of Food Safety and Inspection Service Establishment-Specific Data examines the potential food-safety benefits and other consequences of making establishment-specific data publicly available on the Internet. The report includes how factors such as level of aggregation, timing of release, level of completeness, and characterization of the data or context in which the data are presented might affect their utility in improving food safety. The report also examines potential ways that food-safety benefits and other effects of publicly posting the data might be measured.
